The Safe School Initiative drew from the Secret Service's experience in studying and preventing assassination and other types of targeted violence and the Department of Education's expertise in helping schools facilitate learning through the creation of safe environments for students, faculty, and staff. This document, the Safe School Initiative's final report, details how our two agencies studied school-based attacks and what we found.
